Hi I have succeffully (with a certain amount of pain to update Ubuntu and ARM systems ;-) compiled a SDL program.
On ARM system, SDL doesn't receive good event ID (if I may call it like this). When pressing any digit from wired keyboard, it works fine. When pressing any digit from wireless keyboard, it receive : "numlock key was pressed". So Pygames is out of the loop, like you all suspected (I have to learn). Now what do I do to progress in my investigation ? Can I recompile SDL with different options ? Is SDL relies on an other librairy ? Both system have libsdl version 1.2 Thanks -- Pierre Lafrance pierrelafran...@sympatico.ca wrote: > James Paige wrote: >> On Thu, Aug 20, 2009 at 08:58:27AM -0400, pierrelafran...@sympatico.ca wrote: >>> René Dudfield wrote: >>>> yeah, looks like somewhere the keyboard mappings aren't working. >>>> Likely in linux, C or SDL land. >>>> >>>> This is not a pygame level issue. >>>> >>>> Check on the SDL mailing list, or the arm platform mailing list perhaps? >>>> >>>> >>>> cheers, >>>> >>>> >>> Hi Rene. >>> What I don't understand is : >>> + The alphanumeric keyboards works fine with ARM plateform and Pygame >>> + The numeric keyboard works fine with ARM plateform in a text editor >>> + The numeric keyboard does't works fine with ARM plateform and Pygame >>> >>> So I'm not sure what to look at yet since hardware and software is ok. >>> Anyway, I'll keep you post on progress >>> >>> Thanks >>> >>> Pierre >> I would suggest writing a very small test program in C using SDL.
